Lot 648 Click on photo for enlarged version Click on photo for enlarged version
Greenland. Piastre, 1777. Dav-412; Salv-52. "ISLAN' variety. Struck by the Danish Asia Company in Copenhagen. Imitation of the Pillar Dollar design. Reverse: Crowned arms. Struck only in three years 1771, 1774 and 1777 using only two dates 1771 and 1777, few pieces are known to have survived today. Salvesen notes that five true 1771 pieces, determinable by die combination, are known. About 20 survive from the 1774 mintage, "half in museums." The 1777 with ISLAND on the ground beneath the globes has a population of 3 examples, and Salvesen knew 21 of the ISLAN variety, with no less than 12 in museums. Certainly one of the ultimate classic numismatic rarities, a highlight of any major collection. Toned. Extremely Rare. Extremely Fine to About Uncirculated. Color photo.
Estimated Value $25,000-UP.
